The Santa Tantrum Awards are here!

We had an amazing collection of Santa Tantrum Award photos this year. Here is a post with all the entries. I’m honestly unsure how you will possibly top them next year, although I’m betting that quintuplets will be involved. Either that or a Santa who is physically being restrained in a straight jacket. (There are a couple of Santas in this year’s collection who seemed to be pretty close to getting committed.)

We appreciate all of your submissions blah blah blah blah we had a hard time choosing blah blah blah blah there were no losers blah blah blah blah. Click “Read More” for the Santa Tantrum Awards!

Congratulations to all the winners and thank you to everyone who participated!
